6xc ar 10???

[TEAMSENDIT]

Well,

I won't lie i have tried and true rifle a.d.d. and since i have my bolt gun figured out (abslutely love trg folder), i decided what better project than to build a 6xc semi. I have a pof upper/lower/handguard/buttstock already along with a chromed dpm bolt, geissele dmr trigger, 5 20rd pmags.

So with all the hype on the 6 creedmoor it got me thinking and since i always like to try different things i of course am naturally drawn to the 6xc so that i don't have to form brass and it should be similar velocities.

So my question is do you guys have any recommendations, thoughts? I was planningon adjustable gasblock also and running a 24" heavy benchmark barrels 8 twist fluted.

thanks for your input

An AR expert, Glenn Zediker, believes this is the supremo big chassis AR caliber due to cartridge length/feeding/ballistic. Check it out.

I'm with you on this one bro, I'm building my 6XC on a Mega platform, I've just ordered the barrel. Apparently though Hornady are going to be making 6mm Creed brass and as you know GAP are behind it.

Keep us posted.

Just an FYI, I used to shoot at bowling pin matches on Whidbey Island - beautiful part of the world.

Re: 6xc ar 10???

wow i haven't shot one in awhile but i to used to shoot the pin matches, however this whole long range precision game has taken over for me.

Custer was my club, but a contingent of us used to come down once every few months to take on the Whidbey boys and girls. Where do you shoot long range?

I'm shooting a Medesha built AR10 in 6mmX, the predecessor to the 6mmXC. It has a 8 twist 26" Kreiger barrel with an adjustable gas block. 14oz 2 stage trigger. Shooting the 107smk pretty well. Feeds/ejects perfectly.

interested in what velocities your getting?

If I'm remembering correctly, George @ GAP was really excited about that cartridge for a GAP-10 application.

If you google search it you might find the thread. (again, If I'm recalling correctly.)

Re: 6xc ar 10???

George and a number of others are getting great results out of their GAP-10 with the 6 CM. The numbers and real world performance are both very impressive.

I just received it, not sure what velocity I'm running. 107smk over 34gr Varget. Almost no recoil, very nice to shoot.

Nice. Shoot it. We need to know more.

TSI you hoping to run 100+gr at 3100?

hoping for 2900+fps with 105gr+, honestly first 2 priorities are accuracy, reliability, after that i will work on velocity.

Is there much difference in 6Creed and 6XC?

Nevermind, found a tidbit of info.
